The NCUA took control of day-to-day operations at the $13.5 million Parsons Pittsburg Credit Union in Parsons, Kan. on Jan. 24, blaming unsafe and unsound practices.

The NCUA said in a release the violations were uncovered by the Kansas Department of Credit Unions, which seized the credit union and handed it over to federal officials.
